Once, he was just a boy-innocent, free, and loved. But that life turned to dust the night he was taken. Vanishing into the shadows, he became a ghost, a name whispered in sorrow but never found again. Years passed, and the world moved on, believing him lost forever.

Now, he returns. No longer the helpless child who was stolen, but a man forged in suffering, bearing the scars of his past like a second skin. His hometown sees only a stranger, yet within him burns a relentless fire-a hunger for power, wealth, and the chance to reclaim what was stolen from him.

But fate is never kind. The past does not stay buried, and neither do the enemies who shaped him. As he navigates a world that has forgotten him, he will carve his own path-through blood, ambition, and the allure of a love that threatens to break the armor around his heart.

From the ashes of misery, he will rise. And this time, the world will remember his name.

Phantom Genesis (幻創) by BlakeElric
28 parts Ongoing Mature
Phantom Genesis (幻創) In a world where supernatural warriors are born with unique bloodline abilities, strength is dictated by one's Blood Flow (血流, Ketsuryū)-a force that determines their limits and potential. Nations are divided, tribes are extinct, and the corrupt government rules with an iron grip, hunting down those who threaten their power. Kaito Tsukihana, the last survivor of the Tsukihana Clan (月華, "Moonflower"), was born into a legacy of assassins feared for their ability to warp perception and manipulate speed. But seven years ago, his clan was massacred by the government's elite enforcers, The Sentinels. Now a cocky and reckless fighter, Kaito carves his own path as a lone assassin-until one mission changes everything. A bounty is placed on his head, setting off a relentless hunt. But the deeper he digs, the more he realizes: his assassination target wasn't what he thought. The government's corruption runs deeper than he imagined. And his past? It's not as buried as he believed. Haunted by revenge-seekers, elite bounty hunters, and enemies with grudges against his fallen clan, Kaito must fight, adapt, and evolve, unlocking deadly new transformations with every battle. Alongside Juro, a weary healer with a forgotten past, and Raika, a fierce warrior fueled by rage, Kaito is thrust into a war far bigger than himself. This isn't just about survival. This isn't just about revenge. This is about breaking the cycle of destruction. But to do that, Kaito must become stronger than ever before.

I woke to a sudden breeze invading the warmth from the heavy blanket that caressed my skin. Here, alone with my thoughts, the still, calm quiet in the atmosphere is almost painful. I feel suffocated in the clingy, static air. In quiet, still moments like these, I can almost feel Him. I don't know who "Him" is, but I can feel his presence. It's almost calming, especially on fearful, anxiety fueled nights. Usually, he was the strongest when I had a nightmare. The nightmares weren't as common now, but, right after everything happened, I was having them every night. I'd wake up and swear I was drenched in blood, my eyes and lips sticky, my nose filled with the smell of iron and fuel. After everything, that's when Him first came. From there, he just never left. I can usually sense when Him is near. Today, though, his presence is stronger. I can almost feel Him next to me, weighing down the mattress. Some nights, I roll over and imagine how he looks, envision his smile or the sparkle in his eyes. He's never there and I'm left clutching to the thought that he exists, staring into empty air. Tonight, though, I swear I can reach out and touch him. Extending my hand gently, I sweep my hand out into the darkness and meet an inexplicable warmth. A scream rips from my lungs as hands cover my face and two icy blue eyes stare back at me, daring me to speak again. A soft cloth caressed my nose and mouth before I felt myself fade into bed.

***SAMPLE!*** There's a prophecy - a prophecy holding the fate of two worlds. On the edge of Lilah's field, at the twelfth hour of the fall of twelve, the three kings will unite, a daisy will be lost, or the worlds will be gone. The Oracle tells me that I am bound to the prophecy. That I cannot alter or change it. That I'm destined to be greater than what I am, but I already knew that. I've known that since the age of five. Now, can you guess who needs to die? Death doesn't bother me. I will let the world burn if it means achieving my goals - because with every lick of the whip; he tore my flesh raw, as his laughter rang through the mansion, and my screams disturbed the heavens. No one cared to help, no one listened - definitely not the Gods. So why should I? ._. Eldora. A world woven together by magic. Cloaked in darkness and chaos, sin, and deceit. Where no one is innocent; where both hands - and teeth - drip with the blood of others. And there is her. A lone wolf, watching the world tear itself apart. Watching the chaos, the death, the destruction as she fights a far greater war, within her. What's right and wrong? What's considered good and evil? Where does she stand in this enteral mystery, we call a universe? Coated in darkness and pain, she questions the meaning of life and death, and her purpose in this world of infinite possibilities. She finds only one answer: REVENGE. WARNING - Contains abuse, suicidal thoughts, intense trauma, and erotic scenes. Please do not read if this is heavily triggering for you!

Hunter Anther was like an open book, he'd never been afraid to be his true self. Especially his sexuality. However not everything is for everyone. Being born to the one of the largest pack to ever exist, he wasn't accepted. Everyone hated him and often bullied him, even his family. He'd hoped that after meeting his mate, regardless of gender he would finally find peace and happiness. But the moon goddess truly wasn't fond of him because in addition to being an outcast, he wasn't blessed with a wolf. What happens when his future Alpha, aka biggest bully and former friend turns out to be his mate. Will he accept and care for him or make him lose the last bit of hope he had? Like a saying goes 'The grass isn't always green on the other side.' *** "I didn't mean it.. I.. I was young and ignorant..." he tried to explain while clenching my hand, I looked at him in disgust and pulled my hand away. "What about me? How old wad I to deserve all the things you did to me?! Tell me, how was I different from you? Four years ago you rejected me after everything you've done to me. It wasn't enough punishment for you, you didn't even spare me a glance after ruining me. You left me, you are not gay." My voice trembled bit at the end but my face remained as emotionless as ever. I will never give him the satisfaction of seeing me vulnerable, not again. But why does my heart feel like it's bleeding? Shouldn't I be hating him and happy that he's on his knees begging me. So why am I tearing along with him? **** 25/02/24 - 9/08/24 **** A/N How many of us believe in second chances? Does love really conquer it all? This is not a 'love is blind' story, if you're looking for one.
